  Has anything more frequent been published by the Watchtower publications of Jehovah`s Witnesses that diminishes the rank and file as being a Jehovah`s Witness ? and a member of the Jehovah`s Witness religion ?

  Or are the rank and file now denigrated to be only friends / volunteers of the Governing Body who are the only true Jehovah`s Witnesses recognised by God .?

  It has been stated officially that the rank and file are not members of the Jehovah`s Witness religion .

  So where does that leave them ? Who are they ? What are they to be called ?

  If true ,do the rank and file even know about this ? How would they react ?

  1914 a doctrinal lie that created an entire religion the Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  when you think about it the jws was foundationaly created upon a single core doctrine which was created close to a 100 years ago, that is the doctrinal year of 1914 .. the leader(s) of the ibsa in 1919 proclaimed that jehovah had selectively chosen them or him as it were by j. rutherford, they also self identified themselves as the anointed class the faithful slave.. from all of these expressive endeavors a new religion sprung up eventually calling themselves the jehovah's witnesses.

  years and decades followed where more and more people were lured into the faith making themselves subservient devoted members as well, some also identifying themselves as the anointed class.

  the jws proclaimed through their leaders (gb) that they were true loyal witnesses to jehovah's will and purpose, but were they really ?

  Thank you Doug for those links however it`s going to take a bit more time to absorb all of the things stated in early WT publications much of which I`m already aware of but putting them in such a format helps to appreciate how WT controls and manipulates their volunteers who call themselves Jehovah`s witnesses ?

  Which raises the question in my mind ?

  Do the Governing Body of Jehovah`s Witnesses recognise the rank and file of JW`s as Jehovah`s Witnesses ? or do they just class them as helpers ? volunteers ? friends of the GB ? who they claim are the F&DS class ? the ONLY Jehovah`s Witnesses ? that are on earth ?

  I would appreciate your comment on these questions.

  my husband hadn’t seen his sister for 10 years.

  we were jehovah's witnesses and thanks to their disgusting, arbitrary brainwashing, 10 years of loving our family was wasted shunning them.

  Jehovah`s Witnesses The Anti-Christs Of Bible Prophecy.

  Why ? Because they preach a new gospel demoting Jesus and his Kingdom.

  The Sin Jehovah`s Witnesses Are Guilty Of.?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  are jehovah`s witnesses guilty of committing the unforgivable sin ?.

  “i am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of christ and are turning to a different gospel—not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of christ.

  but even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

  Clarkey ,JW`s GB, rationalize that since Jesus took up his rule in heaven in 1914 , Jehovah God would have given him the dates when he would act .

  Apparently not .

  So Jehovah God misled Jesus who informed the GB that the resurrection of the faithful men of old in Biblical times would be resurrected in 1925 .?

  So Jesus as Jehovah`s appointed King of 1914 also misled the GB of Jehovah`s Witnesses when he told them that 6000 years of human history was to end about October of 1975 and that it would be an appropriate time for Jesus to begin his 1000 year rule ?

  It didn`t happen.

  Also when Jesus Christ stated through the GB that the New System would take place before or soon after the new millenium began in 2000.?

  It didn`t happen

  sex issues seem to be the number one reason but apostasy is right up there too.

  even if you weren’t disfellowshipped , do you know why some people you know were disfellowshipped?

  Oh I remember one or two elders that were tuned in to whether the congregation was being hindered by God`s Holy Spirit because of some secret sin of somebody in the congregation and they were very focused in looking out for that and who to blame.I think it caused some serious issues with some people.
